Surah 113

Al-Falaq

الفلق

5 verses · Meccan

Key structural observations

The surah narrows from the most global form of evil to increasingly targeted harm.
Its movement progresses from surrounding danger to concealed and intentional aggression.
Al-Falaq functions as the unifying counter-principle to darkness, constriction, and hidden hostility.

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ

مِنْ شَرِّ مَا خَلَقَ

وَمِنْ شَرِّ غَاسِقٍ إِذَا وَقَبَ

وَمِنْ شَرِّ النَّفَّاثَاتِ فِي الْعُقَدِ

وَمِنْ شَرِّ حَاسِدٍ إِذَا حَسَدَ
